S02E14 - The Terrifying Invitation - Exodus 19:1-25

Israel has finally arrived at the foot of Mount Sinai, where God prepares to make His covenant with them. But this is no casual meeting. Before the Law is given, God establishes the terms: He will make them a "kingdom of priests and a holy nation" if they obey. In this foundational study of Exodus 19, Pastor Stephen Armstrong unpacks the profound significance of God's terrifying descent upon the mountain in thunder, fire, and smoke. Discover the difference between a Suzerain and a Parody covenant, why God's absolute holiness required strict boundaries, and how this awesome display of power was meant to instill a true and necessary "fear of the Lord" before the covenant could be made. This is the crucial context needed to understand everything that comes next.
